That is so awesome man, I so envy your abilities! Wish I could learn japanese well/had someone to practice it with. I've picked up a few words and phrases by watching anime, but I wish I could understand something without the subs. Not to mention, I feel that even though translators do a really good job subbing, there's still some "meaning" that can be lost in translation simply due to how the language is. Which is kind of unfortunate because I really appreciate language and how it can be used, so I wish I could understand Japanese in its full glory :;(

Oh wow, even more badass haha. Very nice! How long does it usually take you to sub an episode?

Also out of curiosity, when you translate, how much of your work gets edited by an editor? Or do you have the main say in it since you know the original language and its specific meanings/connotations?

Wow, this is a bit surprising; I was just reading the interview you participated in for gg and now I find that you have an account on AS. Thanks for doing the interview, it was very insightful and after reading it I felt as if I had a better understanding of how things work "inside the industry". Not only that, as someone who is thinking about becoming a freelance translator myself, I found it very informative on how the general daily life for one is. I'm looking forward to your work on the Kuragehime simulcast, so thanks in advance for that as well.
